Care and maintenance

Shutting off the water and electricity supplies

Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to avoid leaks.

Remove the plug from the socket when cleaning the machine and when carrying out maintenance work.

Cleaning the dishwasher

The external surfaces of the machine and the

 

control panel may be cleaned using a non-

 

abrasive cloth which has been dampened with

 

water. Do not use solvents or abrasive products.

Cleaning the filters

EN

The filters remove food residue from the water used in the wash cycle: to obtain the best results from each wash, they should be cleaned.

￿Clean the filters regularly.

￿After cleaning check that the filter assembly has been replaced correctly.

￿The dishwasher should not be used without filters.

￿￿The dishwasher should not be used without filters, or when the filter is loose.

1. Remove the filters by pulling the handle upwards.

Any marks on the appliance interior may be

 

removed using a cloth dampened with water and

 

a little vinegar.

Preventing unpleasant odours

2.Clean the filters:

• after every wash cycle, remove the largest pieces of residue from semicircular plate A and glass B (these may be removed by pulling the handle) by rinsing them under

Clean the seals around the door and detergent

 

dispensers regularly using a damp sponge. This

 

will avoid food becoming trapped in the seals,

 

which is the main cause of the formation of

 

unpleasant odours.

Cleaning the sprayer arms

Food residue may

become encrusted onto

the sprayer arms and

block the holes used to

spray the water. It is

therefore recommended

that the arms are

checked from time to

time and cleaned with a

small non-metallic

brush.

 

 

• The entire filter
